Guys, I bought a Sako L579 Forester in .243 just this past weekend at my local gunshow. The gun is in mint condition and unfired even though it appears to be a 1970s model. I couldn't be more pleased with my purchase.

The gun has attractive wood with a nice dark finish and the metal craftmanship is also superb. I can't wait to get a scope installed on it and then take it out to the range! Thanks for all of your help!
